APVI is THE BEST INT'L visa service.
I 1489% unequivocally recommend APVI. I had one of the most challenging international visa cases due to clerical errors on the part of multiple other parties before APVI. I did my research, believe me. And I found APVI. They not only didn't disappoint. They went over and above the call of duty on so many ways it's not possible to list them all here. They triaged, diagnosed and then executed a plan to clean up everything from others' mistakes, guided me and other stakeholders, including my international employer, in detail, filing papers properly, calling back or emailing expeditiously always, double and triple checking everything before filing… They leave no stone unturned to get the results you want.
